Among the many utility exhibits at the show 011 Friday and Saturday was one. which, in particular, aroused tho keen interest of practical farmers. This was tho unique top-dresser, or Super Settler Distributor, invented by Mr. M. Higgins, of Mercer, and used with distinct success by him on various farms in the district. Tho distributor embodies simplicity, efficiency, and dependability, while the working parts are so simple as to enable tho machino to be sold at a prico within the reach of all. Distribution is by force-feed, made absolutely even bv a patent feeder plate. The one-control lever makes it possible to alter tho output of manure while the machine is in motion. No other adjustment is required. Demonstrations may bo arranged at any time on Mr. Iliggins' farm at Mercer.
